Chapter 527 Is the Opera Too Old? Let’s Learn About the Blue-Faced Dou Erdun

Why sleep so long when you are alive? You will sleep forever after you die.

Don't sleep anymore, get up and watch the evening party!

In Shanghai, countless audiences walked out of their homes and played snowball fights in the biting cold wind.

Some people sang under the street lights in the snow: "Snowflakes are flying, the north wind is whistling, and the world is vast!"

Be active, be active, the song you just learned can be put to use immediately. In one word, it's amazing!

These imitation videos of Shanghai were uploaded to the Internet, making many people envious.

Especially netizens in the south, they were so envious.

"Why is it snowing in Shanghai!"

"I can't say enough about my envy."

"I suddenly want it to snow."

The snow in the south usually falls late, and it may not even snow once a year.

For them, this kind of scene of snowing while listening to "Yi Jian Mei" is something they can only encounter but not seek.

Netizens in the north suddenly felt superior, "No way, no way, there is no snow in your place?"

"Hey, you'll be happy if it snows, but it's not that serious."

The picture shows the snow half a meter deep outside the window.

Netizens in Shanghai stopped laughing when they saw the snow on the ground that was not even a centimeter thick.

The snow that made them ecstatic was so easy and casual in the north, breaking their defenses.

"Hmph, you're just jealous!"

"It's boring, I don't want to play anymore!"

"Let's go, let's go to the gala."

The New Year's Eve gala gave everyone too many surprises.

Especially Shanghai Satellite TV, after two hours of fierce competition, the ratings finally surpassed CCTV.

The average ratings exceeded CCTV.

This is an unprecedented event.

Sun Mingcheng finally couldn't help it and broke the cup for who knows how many times.

It's hot.

Everything is hot.

The chief director of the Spring Festival Gala?

Don't dream, go to bed.

CCTV lost to Shanghai Satellite TV, he was not ashamed, the higher-ups were.

A complete defeat!

On the other side, Yu Tianlei was smiling with wrinkles all over his face.

It was amazing, even he had never thought that Xu Nuo could rely on Shanghai Satellite TV to suppress CCTV in terms of ratings.

In terms of resources, ten Shanghai Satellite TV stations are not as good as CCTV. In terms of stars, CCTV can choose any superstar, Shanghai has only Xu Nuo and Zhao Lei. In terms of audience base, it is unknown how many times different.

Shanghai Satellite TV has none of the advantages of time, place and people, they only have Xu Nuo.

But it was this only variable that completed the miracle of Shanghai Satellite TV surpassing CCTV.

Yu Tianlei touched his graying hair and suddenly felt an emotion that he should not have.

Jealousy.

Inevitable jealousy.

After decades of work, Yu Tianlei asked himself if he had the ability to bring local satellite TV to this point.

Stars and directors are two different tracks.

Now Xu Nuo is taking both paths, and both paths are successful, which is really terrible.

Having directed the Shanghai Satellite TV New Year's Eve Gala that surpassed CCTV, many people have to re-examine his directing ability.

His next path may take a turn, from a top star to a top director.

Generally speaking, the director has more say in the discussion of stars and directors, because he decides the stars' roles and who can get more exposure.

Except for top stars, ordinary stars do not have much say in front of directors.

The director has the final say, which is a customary rule.

Xu Nuo has been very popular this year, and he is a walking hot search, but Sun Mingcheng said that he would not be allowed to participate, so he would not be allowed to participate. This is the power of the director.

Being controlled by others is the biggest pain point of stars.

Xu Nuo jumped out of the rules. I am the director myself, and I have the final say.

Yu Tianlei looked at the flashing neon lights outside the window, and suddenly felt fortunate.

Fortunately, he has reached the age of retirement, and in a few years, he will be able to retire unscathed.

As for Sun Mingcheng, Sun Mingcheng is nearly ten years younger than him. He still has a long way to go, but unfortunately this road is destined to be difficult.

Because Xu Nuo suddenly came up.

If Yu Tianlei was ten years younger, he would not be able to help suppressing Xu Nuo. This young man is too threatening and too young.

If he is allowed to grow up so quickly, where will he have a place to stay.

"Retirement is great!" Yu Tianlei pushed open the window and felt the biting cold wind outside the window.

Cultivate Xu Nuo well. In a few years, when he retires, Xu Nuo will be able to carry the banner of the Spring Festival Gala.

At that time, he, the Bole, will naturally be able to get some light.

In the CCTV building, the backstage was dead silent.

The staff spoke much more quietly, for fear of angering Sun Mingcheng. Even a fool knew that he must be in a bad mood now.

Is the CCTV program exciting?

It is very exciting, far exceeding the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, and Sun Mingcheng really put his heart into it.

But it didn't work.

Shanghai Satellite TV is like an invincible cheat, chasing CCTV.

In the Internet age, television is no longer the only means of communication. The impact of the Internet on ratings is too great.

Netizens' overwhelming discussion directly points to Shanghai Satellite TV, and more and more people go to watch Shanghai Satellite TV's New Year's Eve party.

After Zheng Guangming left the stage, the older audiences were a little sleepy and wanted to go to bed.

It's hard for them to persist until now at such an old age.

Many people have stood up and are ready to turn off the TV.

The host seemed to have guessed everyone's thoughts long ago, and without further ado, he announced: "The next song for you is a perfect fusion of Peking opera and pop songs. Friends who like Peking opera, you must not miss it! Friends who don't feel Peking opera, please don't leave, this song is definitely a huge surprise!"

The host's confident tone made the older audience stop their actions again.

Peking opera? Then I have to take a look.

The young people were originally ready to change the channel, but after listening to the host's words, they stayed and watched it. If it doesn't look good, they will change it.

The hosts of Shanghai Satellite TV this year are more down-to-earth, and they say what they mean. They basically don't exaggerate to keep people interested. When they said this, many people were very curious about what song could be given such a high evaluation.

"A song "Rap Mask" for everyone!"

This song has a very big origin, so big that almost everyone in the country can sing a few lines.

Just looking at the song title, most people may say that they have never heard of it, but looking at the lyrics, wow, it's actually this song.

A famous line of lyrics is, "Blue-faced Dou Erdun steals the imperial horse!"

Almost everyone can sing this line.

When it comes to opera songs, this song is unavoidable. Later, "The New Drunken Concubine" and "Wanjiang" were developed on the basis of this song.

The host left the stage, and a group of actors in costumes came up, dressed in standard Peking opera costumes.

The elderly were very excited, but the young people didn't feel much. It's not that they don't like to watch, but they can't understand it.

Wait a little longer, if it doesn't work, change the channel.

The music sounded, very cheerful music.

It doesn't sound like a drama at first, but like pop music.

The young people suppressed their impatience and continued to watch.

On the stage, a group of opera singers stood there motionless as if they were frozen after they came on stage.

"What does this mean?"

"Why don't you jump?"

"What's going on?"

The elderly said they didn't understand, and the young people were also puzzled.

But the more this happened, the more interested the audience became.

I want to see what you are up to.

The audience's rebellious psychology came into play at this time.

The actors on the stage stopped moving, but a few young people in fashionable clothes came up, two men and two women, who looked like they were only in their teens.

The audience's first reaction was that this was a mistake. They were singing here, why did a few children come up.

At this time, singing also sounded, it was a female voice.

"That day, my grandfather took me to watch Peking Opera,

and I saw a lot of big painted faces on the stage."

The audience understood at once that it was role-playing.

"I was wondering why these people didn't move, it turned out to be props."

"Don't say, this contrast is a bit strong."

The elderly frowned, it was supposed to be Peking Opera, why did they sing songs.

The young people were interested.

This female singer was invited by Xu Nuo from the Magic City Drama Troupe. She practiced singing since she was a child, and singing is not a problem. She is not famous, and many people don't know her at all.

The clothes she wore on the stage were also very fashionable, just modern clothes, which were incompatible with the costumes.

"Red, white, yellow, green, and blue grin and glare,

While singing, they shout "Waaaaa",

It's like the sound of thunder exploding in my ears."

Amid the cheerful singing, four boys and girls shuttled back and forth in the crowd, jumping and skipping happily.

The young people laughed immediately.

"Hey, it feels the same as when I was a child."

"Yes, when I was a child, my grandfather took me to see the opera, and I thought these big painted faces were very interesting."

"It's like a dream back to my childhood."

"It's fun, but I don't understand it."

The patience of the elderly audience was almost exhausted, and they were ready to turn off their phones and go to bed.

It's called Peking Opera, but I didn't hear a word, which seemed a bit fooling people.

At this time, amid the music, the female singer on the stage took a deep breath.

"Blue-faced Dou Erdun stole the imperial horse,

Red-faced Guan Gong fought in Changsha,

Yellow-faced Dian Wei, white-faced Cao Cao,

Black-faced Zhang Fei shouted."

Wow!

The voice made everyone stop turning off their phones.

Peking opera suddenly jumped out of the screen.

This taste is so authentic.

Standard opera singing.

"This is good, this is good!"

The elderly were very excited.

Peking opera has been declining. In the past, we could watch opera every year during the Spring Festival, but now we may not be able to watch it for many years.

Listening to the opera singing on TV, many people were a little excited.

A young man suddenly said, "Hey, grandpa, is this opera singing?"

"Yes, this is the singing style of Peking opera."

The young man hesitated for a moment and scratched his head, "Then how can I understand it?"

This question stumped the grandfather, and he also reacted,

How can this Peking opera be so easy to understand.

"But it's pretty nice." Seeing that the grandfather was still thinking, the young man became excited, "If Peking opera is like this, I would like to listen to it too!"

Many young people have this idea. Such Peking opera does not seem so difficult to accept, and they even want to listen to it.

Dou Erdun, Zhang Fei, Cao Cao, Guan Yu, are all familiar figures, and it is very interesting to listen to them.

But some people began to think, if Peking opera is so beautiful, why did it decline?

The answer was given on TV.
